And magically got rid of the $CONFIG_FILES-now-starts-with-a-space

Goody. I got this far as well, but thought I should get a grip
on that ac_objext (and why not ac_cv_objext or whatever) thingy
first. I had a similar patch for the SIM_AC_OUTPUT problem, but
sed:ed out the space and kept the curious CONFIG_FILES test.

Time for me to have another look.
